Cecilia Hill

Dog Trainer
ceciliacctraining@gmail.com

Cecilia is the proud owner of 3 wonderful dogs, an Australian shepherd (Scarlet), a chihuahua mix (Rose), and a Dachshund named (Maddie). Being an avid animal lover, she also owns a cat named Kitty, and a gerbil named Khloe. Cecilia spent most of her childhood being around animals and instantly found herself interested in learning everything about them.

In 2008, she took her love and passion for animals to the next level and began her career with animals by doing in home pet sitting. It was then, she had found her true love for all things “dog”.

After many years of working with animals of all sizes, she decided to focus on canines. She took a position at a dog lodging and daycare facility where she learned about pack interactions and began to train dogs.

In 2018, she brought her experience, knowledge and love for dogs to the Camp Canine Family. She is now our Daycare Manager.  She hopes to spread her knowledge and help make a difference in dogs' lives. We are glad she joined our team!

Cecilia has created bonds with our clients that will last a lifetime, and we couldn't be happier to have her as part of our team!

Chantelle Plourde

Chantelle Plourde

Dog Trainer & Vet Tech Assistant
chantellecctraining@gmail.com

Chantelle is the proud owner of three rescues: Coco, Pebbles and Kaluha. She grew up around a wide variety of animals, from the basic house cat, to horses and livestock. After a few years of being around “ fur, feathers and those with four paws”, it wasn’t long before she began to investigate how she could be around animals more often, and wondered how she could make this into a life long career.

In 2014, Chantelle joined the Camp Canine family where she started with working with the dogs in the daycare. She continued to grow her abilities and knowledge whilst expanding her responsibilities there. She also took pride in private pet sitting, and even joined in Dock Dogs Diving events with her sister’s dog.

She began to train dogs in 2017. Her training experience includes classes as well as one on one private sessions. Training has brought her so much joy and her experience working as a Vet Technician Assistant and as our previous Daycare Manager has helped her further develop her training and behavioural skills.

Chantelle leaves a lasting impression with everyone she works with, and she captures the hearts and tail wags of every dog she meets. We couldn’t be happier that she is part of our team!
